Tiny Bubbles in the United Kingdom

Tiny Bubbles was part of the first set of Baby Sea Ponies, and she was sold in many countries in the same format as that released in the UK. She was made in the head turned pose, and came with a yellow and orange duck float. She also came with a blue whale brush,  orange ribbon and puffy sticker.

Tiny Bubbles was reissued in the UK (but not in most of Europe) in the following year with a pearly sheen, as one of the Pretty & Pearly Baby Sea Pony set. She was not included in the North American set.


Tiny Bubbles in Other Places

Tiny Bubbles' original release was in North America in 1985-6. She was subsequently sold in the Benelux countries on the same card as in North America, but with a sticker on the top corner in Dutch and French. She was also sold in France on translated cards with the UK art style, and in Italy on Italian-specific design cards. She was also sold in German speaking countries. The accessories were consistent across these releases. She was not reissued in countries outside the UK.




Tiny Bubbles' Character

  According to the fact file, Tiny Bubbles was a keen underwater explorer and liked finding new places. She also had a magic trick in the comics to do with blowing bubbles.
